Stuck on wxFrame project. Help?

Post by SamsonEvans »

I'm making my first wxFrame-based project in wxDev-C++ and I'm a bit lost. I used the wizard to create a wxFrame project and I got a blank dialog in the form designer. I dropped a wxMenuBar and a wxStatusBar onto the frame and got those set up exactly the way I want them to appear.

Now I'm stuck. I want to have the main area split into two "frames" (probably the wrong word) with a splitter that I can move around to adjust the size of each "frame". In each "frame" I want a list control with multiple columns and column headers (optionally sortable). I want the splitter to span horizontally and be able to be moved vertically. Basically, the entire main application area revolves around these two "frames".

Also, I want to be able to press the 'Tab' key on the keyboard and have the cursor jump between the two "frames". I also want the application to be able to handle being resized and maximized.

P.S. The main wxDev-C++ website appears to be down.
